Mickey Avalon - audio interview
Avalon was raised in a family with many turbulent experiences. His mother worked as a pot dealer (which Avalon began doing as well) and his father was a drug addict.
By the time he was out of his teenage years, he had prostituted himself in order to get money to support his addiction to heroin. He spent time as a prostitute and drug dealer before finding success in music. During his late teens, Avalon briefly converted to Orthodox Judaism. By his early 20s, Avalon got married, had a daughter, and moved to Oregon. While battling his drug addiction, Avalon moved in with his sister to aid each other with recovery. During this time, his sister relapsed and died from a heroin overdose.
